is of

information
about you when you visit our site unless you choose to provide that
information
to us.
The specific practices outlined in this privacy statement apply to Web
sites maintained by or on behalf of SpideyMoney.Com: Automatic

each HTTP (which is what your Web browser generates when you request a
page or
part of a page from a Web site) request received, we collect and store
only the

type of
browser and operating system used (if provided by the browser) the URL
of the
referring page (if provided by the browser) the object requested
completion
status of the request pages visited How the Information is
Used:
We use the
information that we collect to measure the number of visitors to the
different
areas of our sites, and to help us make our sites more useful to
visitors. This
includes analyzing these logs periodically to determine the traffic
through our
servers, the number of pages served, and the level of demand for pages
and
topics of interest. How Long is the Information Retained:
The logs may be
preserved indefinitely and used at any time and in any way necessary to
prevent
security breaches and to ensure the integrity of the data on our
servers.

Cookies:
SpideyMoney.Com does not use "persistent cookies" or any other
persistant tracking methods to collect personally identifiable
information
about visitors to its Web sites. Cookies are small files that Web
servers place
on a user's hard drive. They can serve several functions: they allow
the Web
site to identify you as a previous visitor each time you access a site;
they track
what information you view at a site (important to commercial sites
trying to
determine your buying preferences); in the more advanced cases they
track your
movements through many Web sites but not the whole Web; businesses use
them for
customer convenience to allow them to produce a list of items to buy
and pay
for them all at one time and to garner information about what
individuals are
buying at their sites; advertisers use them to determine the
effectiveness of
their marketing and offer insights into consumer preferences and tastes
by
collecting data from many Web sites; and they can be used to help a Web
site
tailor screens for each customer's preference. To protect your privacy,
be sure
to close your browser completely after you have finished conducting
business
with a Web site that does use cookies. If you are concerned about the
potential
use of the information gathered from your computer by cookies, you can
set your
browser to prompt you before it accepts a cookie. Most Internet
browsers have settings
that let you identify and/or reject cookies.
Personal Information via Forms:
Some of our sites provide forms allowing visitors to submit search
engine
queries, questionnaires, feedback, or other information. Some of these
forms
may request personally identifiable information (e.g., name, address,
e-mail
address) for specific purposes, such as when the submitter is
requesting a
personal response, registering for a conference, or subscribing to a
mailing
list. All information submitted by visitors is voluntary. We may store
non-personally identifiable information we collect (such as search
engine
queries and anonymous survey responses) indefinitely to help us better
understand and meet the needs of our visitors. We may share
non-personally
identifiable information with others, including the public, in
aggregated form
(for instance, in a list of our most popular search engine queries), in
partial
or edited form (such as in a report summarizing responses to a
questionnaire),
or verbatim (for example, in a complete listing of survey responses).
Before
collecting personally identifiable information, we will prominently
disclose:
why we are requesting the information; how it will be used; how long it
may be
retained; and under what conditions, and with whom, it may be shared.
Consent
to Information Collection /Sharing: Generally, we will not share any
personally
identifiable information you give us with any government agency,
private
organization, or the public, except with your consent or as required by
law. By
pressing the "submit" button, each visitor constitutes consent to use
the information for purposes stated in this policy.
How e-mail is Handled: By
sending us an electronic mail message (for example, an e-mail message
containing an official Freedom of Information Act request), you may be
sending
us personally-identifying information. In these cases, we may retain
the
information as long as necessary to respond to your request or
otherwise
resolve the subject matter of your e-mail. Please be aware that email
is not
necessarily secure from interception or misdirection.
For your

you may wish to communicate sensitive information using a method other
than

the
information being transmitted to any unit of the SpideyMoney.com, we
will protect all such information consistent with applicable law
including, but
not limited to, the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Freedom of Information
Act. For
